hi,

see phd in business management is a doctoral level course and can be done after completing masters degree, however the general eligibility criteria is candidates need to pass master degree in relevant discipline from a recognized university,

however iim bangalore offer phd course of 5 years duration on below mention discipline,

Decision Sciences

Economics & Social Sciences

Entrepreneurship

Finance & Accounting

Information Systems

Marketing

Organizational Behaviour & Human Resources Management

Production & Operations Management

Public Policy

Strategy

candidates from any of the background of  masters degree or integrated 5 years masters degree holders may apply for phd course in iim bangalore.

some of the institute which offer phd in management is,

INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT - [IIMA], AHMEDABAD

NIMS university

IIM KOLKATA

MDI GURGAON

IIM LUKHNOW

actually m not asking about the colleges which offered phd programs. I just want to ask that I have done masters in economics . and it will be considered as humanities background but as of now if will do phd from management department instead of humanities. so would it be beneficial in future because my background will be changed after this. I m from humanities right now but if will do phd from management it would be considered as management faculty .. so much confusion . please clear

Khushboo Goyal yes, you may apply for iim bangalore for phd course, see the eligibility criteria changes and it differs college to college, however if you have the relevant degree in management course you can certainly apply for management colleges .
